The Dreamhouse of Tomorrow - Today !!!

Yes Ladies - You could have the Dreamhouse of Tomorrow ---Today.

Complete with...Formica.

Actually, while this slide is tedious, the wondermaterial Formica is actually quite interesting.

Bonus - Clemens Habicht's 5000 COLOURS is a CMYK colour gamut jigsaw puzzle of 5000 pieces. Each tile is an individual colour and the task is to place each colour exactly in relation to every other colour. Video

The Slide Guy says 'Hi'

Welcome to The Past

What's this all about? Well, let me explain. Before digital cameras, people used film cameras. Even better, for many years people used slide films, allowing them to have the neighbours round so they could project their pictures onto a wall, so everyone could act interested and ogle their neighbours.

Digital cameras killed that off.

Now, when Uncle Sid dies, the family don't want to bother with those slides and consign them to the bin (or eBay.) I rescue them. It's a service. You're welcome.

Most of the slides are dull, but occasionally, there's a beauty. This blog shares a selection of them - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.
